Microwave Moisture Installation – Brackets/Sensors

Locate the mounting holes on the back of both the left and right

side of the bale chute (Figure 1 & 2).

Mount the rear microwave moisture mounting brackets 001-

nuts and lock washers located in parts bag. NOTE - Some baler

models may require bracket modification. Ensure no chains or

other moving parts may interfere with mounting of microwave

sensors. If baler is equipped with chute, carefully raise, and

lower it to make sure it does not interfere with microwave

sensors.

Attach the microwave moisture sensors to each mounting bracket. Sensor 006-4641MTX will be mounted on

the left side of the bale chute (figure 4). Sensor 006-4641MRX will be mounted on the right side (figure 5).

Mount the sensors with the wire connection port toward the baler.

Locate the MWM wiring harness (006-7640MWL) in the kit. Start by locating the connector with the white heat

shrink label marked RX. Connect this connector to the sensor mounted on the right-side chute (006-

4641MRX).

Route the MWM harness (006-7640MWL) to the front of the baler using zip ties. If baler is equipped with

as each spike movement triggers individual microwave readings.

Note – additional modification may be required to properly mount

the proximity sensor depending on baler model and design of

metering wheel.

Route the 006-7401 proximity harness to the main microwave

harness (006-7640MWL) and connect to the triangular Deutsch plug

See wiring Diagram for attaching tractor power harness 006-764IC to battery power. 2 display options of

microwave moisture:

Once the and moisture option is selected, the containers should show with a red background.

The moisture information is denoted by a rain droplet for instantaneous and a rain drop with a back arrow

above for the last bale average moisture. These values are separated by a slash.

**NOTE: When the preservative sprayer icon is RED, the preservative system is not in a run mode (Auto or

Manual). When the system is in a run mode, the icon will be GREEN. The HT Preservative and Moisture

containers will have RED background when the system is not in a run mode.
